    One of my most memorable experiences with streetpass is when my family surprised me by going to Disney and we stayed at a hotel that was really big and had tons of activities to do there, and I remember after I went to the water park at this hotel, and then I come back and I get 47 DIFFERENT PEOPLE INSIDE MY MII PLAZA. It blew my mind that so many people were there who owned a 3DS and that they even had a lot of the same games as me.
    It is easily the most slept on concept for the 3DS.

      I think that’s what I missed the most about the 3DS and WiiU era, nowadays with the switch everything just feels so…..dull, and isolated. The switch barely has any charm to it, its menus are and Gray and the symbols are just boring. Don’t get me wrong, I love playing on it, but I really do miss when Nintendo actually put a lot of characterization in their consoles and allowed us to share our experiences with each other as a community.

I have tonnes of party games on the Wii that I play with my family when I come home for the holidays, and I take my 3DS up to uni with me so I can check in on my tomodatchi and play some professor layton. It's not because of a lack of better consoles, I love my switch, but because these consoles still hold a lot of value in my opinion outside of nostalgia

      I never heard of this feature until this video popped up (never had a thing for consoles, portable or otherwise...), but with the direction Nintendo (or any console maker, for that matter) currently seems to be going, if they ever brought this back, it would be probably for the 'low, low price' of ONLY $24.99 a month 🙄...

    I really miss streetpass. In my hometown it felt so rare to get a visitor via streetpass so it always felt really special to me, like "oh thank god I'm not the only nerd here". I honestly felt emotional the first time I brought my 3DS to an anime convention, it was like I could feel a sense of community even if I never talked to anyone. Sometimes I'd even recognize who just street passed with me because their Mii was pretty accurate too. It does feel a bit odd that they haven't made something like that for phones, but also I can't see them adding it to the Switch or its successor unless the size of the console gets smaller. The 3DS was small enough as you said to even just fit in a pocket, whereas if I'm bringing my switch with me it'll depend on how much other stuff I have in my purse at the time LOL.

      The only way I could see it working is if they made a really small, durable device that you can easily carry around with you anywhere. It could have streetpass and pick up anyone you pass that has a Switch or one of those devices. Then you could connect it into your [Insert name of next Switch here], and when you have internet available, it would search up the users and add their streetpass data to compatible games.
      I doubt it would be that expensive, maybe $20 at most? So it would be absolutely worth a buy for me. The Switch itself could have streetpass, but when you're going somewhere where it's not efficient to bring your Switch, you can carry the Streetpass device instead!
      I doubt this would ever happen, but I think it would be super cool.

  • @LimePepsi
    @LimePepsi 7 місяців тому +25

    Growing up i went to a lot of anime conventions with my siblings, and streetpass was basically part of the culture at them. At any panel you went to you'd see at least someone collecting puzzle pieces or playing Find Me (Usually Find Me II since you got so many people that you'd easily clear Find Me I), and honestly the same conventions just feel a bit duller now that there's nothing to replace it. It formed a sort of unspoken community, so large that I have met up with at least one person from all of the US states at this point. I miss it a lot. Sometimes I still keep my 3DS on in my bag in hopes to see that flashing green light while I commute to school.

    Awww man I'd love streetpass to come back. I loved that it felt like an anonymous community within your life. I was in community college at the time but always got the same people from the parking lot to classes. Also Cons were so awesome with it. From like wondercon to anime expo, it was a gold mine and fun. if they bring back streetpass, they would have to bring back Mii's too.

    I am doing something about this Street Pass neglect by doing the following.
    1) I am a city Park Manager for Indianapolis, IN. and I am making my facility a street pass facility! Any DS that comes into my locations lobby can get at least one street pass while visiting my aquatic facility.
    2) I am Scheduling my own Street Pass Weekends! I will have special dates starting in March that I am going to ask for people EVERYWHERE to carry their Nintendo DS systems to prove to Nintendo that this feature deserves to be included on the next hand held. We need to get people talking about it on social medias like this to make them understand they messed up.
    First date will be March 8th, 9th, and MAR10th...
    NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER SERENDER! #VivaLaStreetPass

It always warmed my heart at the end of the day getting on the bus and opening it up to all the people I unknowingly passed that day in school. I never met any of them, but there was just a sense of comradery at seeing the same people also bringing their 3ds' to school. Miss that high a lot

    I was a Streetpass FIEND in middle school! There were like 8 of us in the entire school that would bring their 3DS to school, but we did it so often that we were all able to complete all the Streetpass games. I remember that since my family was involved in Boy Scouts and other traveling activities, I was unofficially in charge of going out into the world and getting new puzzle pieces to be able to trade around the school. I had over 40 completed puzzles in my plaza!!! alas, tragedy struck when my 3DS was stolen out of my locked locker during PE... I lost my cartridge of Smash, my entire completed save file of Pokemon X, all of my other game data. I eventually got a new 3DS and tried to start restart, but my family had already moved out of state and the time of Streetpass was over. I brought it in my bag to my new school, but got maybe 3 passes in 4 weeks and gave up. Some of my absolute favorite memories came from staying up late at night and going through my completed collection.

    Streetpass is very nostalgic for me. Going to one of my siblings and going “hey could you change your mii’s shirt color I need to destroy a cyan shield” or just finding new people definitely holds a special place in my heart. But my 2ds started occasionally blacking out a couple years ago and I don’t know how much time it has left. And also with the eshop closing I can’t get the first boxboy game which is the only game I haven’t played yet.

    I guess thats why i really miss the 2000s and the 2010s because there was so much creativity back then, instead of the simplified style and modern designs we have, its so boring. I was still pretty young to be able to understand and be grateful for even getting to play games on a gamecube or ps3, but now looking back i realize how fun and colorful games and features available to us were, ofc theres a community for this, theres still people who play these nostalgic games but i wish i could be able to relive that experience again of playing games with low graphics without having any worries

    I think the biggest thing that surprises me with the 3ds is just how old it is. Looking back, that really was the console that was around for the most of my childhood. 2011 (7 elementary) to 2017-18 (14/15 highschool).
    So much of the stuff on the 3ds was around for so much of my life i can’t really ever see it as “old”.

    The problem with saying "street pass is dead" is that it's a self fulfilling statement. Just bring your 3DS with you, especially at crowded events like game conventions, and street pass can and will continue. It'll only truly die when no one does. I got two at Disneyland yesterday. We're still out there.

    I really hope the next gen of nintendo goes back to having a home system and portable system because needing to keep my switch lite in its case really hampers me putting it in my cargo shorts pocket, let alone my jeans pocket. I also want the superfluous reflecty and bloopy aesthetic and soundscape to return from the wii and 3DS. They're so much more fun than minimalism. Plus just the home screen customization in general was a blast. Just having a fun background you look at and listen to for half a second between power on and the game booting. But the aspect i miss the most of the 3DS was, like you said, the stuff that asks you go outside for a hot minute.
